Hey /lit/ I was just wondering what the best edition for the multiple volumes of this book is?

I love my Everyman's edition, but I have nothing to compare it to.

There are hundreds, but I like mine-- an 1899 Peter Fenelon Collier (New York) in 6 vols.

I have the everyman's bookset, too. The english is untouched and unabridged, and it includes all Gibbon's footnotes (a ridiculous amount, they make up like a quarter of the text). The introduction/chronology of the author is solid, and it looks nice on my shelf too. I can't imagine any other editions would offer anything that would make them vastly superior.
